I didn't have trouble with them hooking until they were pretty well worn out. Most of the time I ran 22 - 23 PSI. One thing - You don't need to do John Force burn-outs with Radials. Spin em until the first puff of smoke and go. You don't need to switch them from side to side either until they start to wear out. I would get about 130 - 140 runs out of a set. Radials are very popular with the Stock Eliminator crowd. Hoosier rep told us to swap them after about 10 runs then only make a pass or 2 and swap them back. It makes a differance. We run Hoosier 10.5x30 radials. You are correct about the burnout. Just a little smoke and go.
